Wow... Being paid to be bored...
Well due to the shitty weather, I'm stuck here at the Airport with nothing to do. I've filled like two planes and I've been here since 12. My co-worker and I washed a couple Runway signs but tired of that so he went home. lol Who wants to come blaze at the end of the Runway? Or even visit? Sure I get paid, but man... I've run out of things to do here.

At least you had the option of going home and not having to Babysit this behemoth facility until 9pm.

That would be at Vancouver International Airport where they actually spend money on stuff. lol Not Boundary Bay where it's Ghetto, our Snowplow is some old ex-Military thing Painted Orange... you should see that sucker steam when it's run, the Radiator sucks ass.

PFC in my personal opinion sucks Donkey Balls... I'd fly with Canadian Flight Centre or Pro IFR before them. I wouldn't touch Regency Express with my 10' Pole. Yah, I've got my Private VFR and Glider... I'm going to be working on my Commercial Rotary.

Rotary, Pro Helicopter is good and so is that place in Langley. I just don't like some of the Instructors and the Director of PFC, she's a bitch. Canadian is good... when I get checked out here i'll prolly go there. I don't like the way Cessnas handle with those big Barn Doors for wings. I trained on Katanas so I like Low Wings... that and I want a check out on the Arrow II.
